BAKER Jr., Jaaoa Lee Methodist Church "Blessed are the purs in heart, for they shall see God." Of all the "Beatitudes" of Jesus, this one evokes the widest range of feeling. For some it is a "bright particular star" in the constellation; others see It as a key to the Kingdom, while some people attempt to use purity as a pry-bar to get into heaven. But of course, God is not fooled by a superficial piety or a purity that goes no deeper than a list of "don'ts." The word "puritanical" has al most become a naughty word indeed, in some circles people will go to great lengths to prove that they are not pure. To them purity is synonomous with naivete. The sophisticated has lost both his inhibitions and his illusions. He Is now a practical man-of-the-world. It is no wonder that his view of the world is jaundiced and that he is no longer capable of seeing God or very much good. Our generation desperately needs a revival of purity. Not "puritan ism" with its self-righteous codes and Impossible moralising, but those simple virtues" of honesty, faithfulness, diligence, He.

The revolt against "18th century raoralism" resulted in moral anarchy, which in turn has produced a rise in delinquency, parental as well as juvenile; social as well as moral. Recently we have heard national speakers Invoke God's blessing on their plans, and urge that people pray for God's strength for our nation. Jesus was very clear as to the proper order: it is the pure who see God. National purity in foreign affairs, political honesty in domestic affairs, personal piety at home . . . these are the mirrors which reflect the presence of God.
